Carlo wrote last week about Mobile Trends 2020, a project curated by our pal Rudy De Waele. Rudy has updated the slide show with contributions from me, as well as other people who failed to get their act together for the original deadline – or perhaps they decided that they would like to be part [...]

Mobile Trends for the Next Decade
by Carlo Longino on 11. Jan, 2010 in Predictions
MH pal Rudy de Waele asked me to participate in an interesting project before the holidays: a collection of predictions for the mobile world over the next decade.

Mobile Phones in 10 Year’s Time
by Russell Buckley on 18. Jun, 2009 in Predictions
I’ve been writing over at Opinions in Mobile for a while now. The idea is that they send out a question very week to a panel of industry thought leaders (and me) and everyone responds with a short and pithy post. There really are some heavyweight thinks from around the world involved – I won’t [...]
2009 Predictions 7, 8, 9 and 10
by Russell Buckley on 13. Jan, 2009 in Predictions
Finally, here are my last lot of Predictions for 2009. 7. Mobile Payments Gain Traction Ultimately, I believe that the mobile will swallow up the credit card industry, just as it’s fundamentally changed the photo business and decimated alarm clock and calculator sales. But it’s going to be pretty tricky getting from where we are [...]

Well, I did it again this year – managed to squeeze out my first 3 predictions before running off on holiday.

2009 Predictions, Part 2
by Carlo Longino on 20. Dec, 2008 in Predictions
And we roll on from Part 1 with the second installment of my 2009 predictions… 6. WiMAX networks become a success, at least in the US. WiMAX largely been a moot point in the US thus far, but it should enter the mainstream in 2009. It’ll find success as more WiMAX-capable devices emerge, in all [...]
2009 Predictions, Part 1
by Carlo Longino on 19. Dec, 2008 in Predictions
Following my, uh, stellar performance in 2008, here are my predictions for 2009. This was pretty tough, actually, as it was hard to see much past the doom and gloom of the economy to much brightness and light. There’s some, though. As usual, leave your comments and predictions, or a link to them, in the [...]

For those of you following MobHappy on Twitter, you’ll already have read my first three predictions, but here goes with the long form version and a little more explanation.

2008 Predictions Reviewed
by Carlo Longino on 12. Dec, 2008 in Predictions
I hate going over my predictions, as generally, the MO is that you ignore the things you got wrong, and hope that everybody else forgets, while elsewhere trumpeting the things you got right as a sign of your genius. But, following Russell’s lead, here goes with my review of my predictions for 2008. Keep in [...]
2008 Predictions (Part 2)
by Russell Buckley on 10. Dec, 2008 in Predictions
Yesterday, I reviewed my first 5 predictions for the year of 2008 and gave myself 4 out of 5, so far. And I think perhaps I even deserve a 1/2 point for the one I got wrong. Today, we’ll look at the other 5. 6. Explosion of Third Party IM Platforms Well, these were certainly [...]
